Nancy Suzette Coates

NANCY SUZETTE COATES, 44, of Jacksonville, received her angel wings on Dec. 14, 2012 after a long hard battle with Lou Gehrig's disease. Nancy was happiest when she was making others smile, and on her weakest days, she still wanted to make her family smile. She is survived by her children, Chad, Amy, Ricky, and Cody; her grandchildren, James, Caleb, Sophie, Ayden, Layla, and Corbyn; and her devoted soul mate, Chris Ellis. She also leaves behind her parents, Floyd and Lillie Dickerson; her brothers and sisters, Tommy, Hazel, Henry, Ann, Paul, and Mary; and many nieces and nephews that were so dear to her heart. Visitation is 5:30-7 p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 16, 2012, at Arkansas Funeral Care in Jacksonville, with a graveside service at 10 a.m. on Monday, Dec. 17, 2012, at Concord Cemetery, Lonoke.
